On D-Day + 2 (June 8th 1944) he is captured. This ends his combat time and then he is held in several different POW camps. The picture of the contents pages shows the many camps he was interred in. At the end of the war he is liberated by the Russians. In the predawn hours of D-Day, June 6, 1944, which would become immortalized as the Longest Day, Bob Bearden and his comrades in the 507th Parachute Infantry Regiment jumped into the inky skies over Normandy. Their mission: defend the west bank of the Merderet River against German counterattack. After long months of training they were finally taking the war to the Germans. Beardens time in combat proved short lived, however, when he was captured on D+2, June 8...This was only the beginning of a new war for his very survival through multiple German POW camps and ultimately on an epic journey that would take him largely on foot all the way to Moscow on his journey home, all of which makes for exciting reading in this remarkable memoir.
